Re: Buying a motorcycle
Good luck finding the "perfect condition" one.
At 30 years old there's gonna be something that needs to be done...Unless it's been recently serviced and with a guarantee.
Newer "date coded tires".
All the fluids replaced.
Shift stabilizer installed.
All the electric work.
Recent timing belts replaced.
Honda recall for drivability completed.
Etc,etc.
Buyer beware.
Good luck.
